Article Synopsis
- Cases of adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix (AUC) have worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma, and this study examines carbon-ion radiation therapy (CIRT) for AUC through a nationwide Japanese registry in a multicenter prospective approach.
- The study included 42 patients with locally advanced untreated AUC who received CIRT and cisplatin, aiming to assess 2-year overall survival, local control, and disease-free survival rates, as well as late adverse events (AEs).
- Results showed a high 2-year overall survival rate of 97.5%, with local control at 80.9% and disease-free survival at 64.3%, indicating that CIRT is a promising treatment
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of carbon-ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC).
Methods And Materials: Patients with LAPC treated with definitive C-ion RT between April 2014 and July 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The prescribed dose was 55.
